Recognizing the signs of compromised care is crucial for timely intervention:
Frequent Complaints: An increase in patient or family complaints can indicate dissatisfaction with the care provided. High Staff Turnover: Constant changes in nursing staff may reflect poor working conditions and can affect continuity of care. Documentation Errors: Incomplete or inaccurate medical records can signal compromised care. Increased Infection Rates: A rise in infection rates within a healthcare facility can be a red flag for compromised care practices.
